Such a disappointment. How is Greenberg not on the hot seat?
Because people think taking a program from nothing to mediocre is an accomplishment worthy of sainthood. If I were in charge, he would be on the hot seat this season. 9 years in is plenty of time. You need more than perennial bubble bursting in that time. Heck, an NIT title would be helpful if you're not going to make the tournament every year. To make it worse, every year the team has the same problems so its as if nothing changes. This is just my opinion, and I doubt it will happen, but if we fail to make the tournament yet again, I strongly consider firing him. There are some good coaches in the A10 and elsewhere that would be good fits for us as potential replacements.
As for the game, we played better than in Minnesota imo but not by much. I still would like to see that assist total go up (6 total) to show better offensive continuity. There HAS to be a concerned effort to get scoring in the post. We can't rely on Green and Brown to just keep hitting jumpers. Either feed the big guys or start using some flash cuts and backdoor cuts with wing players to get the ball moving inside.
This was yet another wasted opportunity (trademarked by Seth Greenberg). Our only chances at any good OOC wins now are another game at Ok St and BYU. If we can't win BOTH of those, expect to be left out of the tournament again. This is assuming we finish 5th or 6th in the ACC (as I anticipate).
